Male Domestic Short Hair (short coat) named Roderick available for adoption

Roderick

Roderick is nervous around people, but if you approach him slowly and patiently, he'll let you pet him. Although he tends to keep to himself, he gets along fine with other cats. Born around 2011, Roderick was rescued from Texas after Hurricane Harvey. He has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), but he can still live a long and happy life and he can even live with cats who don't have the virus. Despite his nervousness, Roderick would thrive with a patient person who can be understanding.
